Food Waste Intelligence

“Just six years remain to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals’ Target 12.3, which calls for halving food loss and waste worldwide by 2030. At this juncture, we fear that the uncomfortable truth is that SDG 12.3 is fast becoming out of reach.”

Three United States federal agencies have released the National Strategy for Reducing Food Loss and Waste and Recycling Organics. In line with the recently released U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Wasted Food Scale, the strategy prioritizes food waste prevention–stopping food waste from being created to begin with–which is the solution Leanpath provides to the foodservice industry.

This week, Leanpath is excited to be in Baltimore alongside many of our food waste reduction-focused colleagues from around the world at the 2024 ReFED Food Waste Solutions Summit. As we have been preparing for the multitude of sessions at this year’s event, we’ve also been reflecting on the state and pace of food waste reduction efforts in the U.S. and in countries across the globe.

Leanpath is expanding its integration of generative AI into its intelligent food waste prevention platform to drive faster, more impactful kitchen efficiency. This new generative AI integration analyzes a kitchen’s food waste data and recommends specific actions to engage kitchen teams and prevent that waste from reoccurring.

Leanpath, the global leader in food waste prevention in foodservice, builds on its integration capability with menu management systems, announcing a partnership with Galley Solutions and its culinary operating system. Leanpath’s intelligent food waste prevention platform is a complete solution that allows foodservice kitchens to understand what they are wasting and why it’s being wasted. Leanpath’s analytics, reporting, and automated prevention tools empower kitchens to stop that waste from reoccurring.
